Hi, Tony! Got your message. Go to your “Dashboard”. Find “Settings” and you’ll see the SOPA Protest option. Pick that and then you can chose if you want to go “black” with a message and the corner banner, or just the corner banner. It also gives you the option to change the text on the “Black” page – and to see what it looks like. WordPress will activate it for us automatically. Just remember to chose your option and hit “Save”.

When I read Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot I literally laughed aloud.
Your piece made me smile, but in a sad way because it is so true, and so succinct.
Tony I dearly hope you keep your ballads coming. You write ‘the clean line’ as Bukowski and Fante called it.
Can’t get enough.
Each is better than the last. Many thanks!

yeah, it is sad…and you’ll notice- this piece does not have the “humor” tag ’cause i don’t think it’s funny. i am honored you would put me into that class of writer…you’re much too kind. thanks Rachael, continue…

I love your rhyme, Tony. You’re such a one-off. I’m not full belt on US politics, but when I read your stuff I get a very clear picture. The cartoon is terrific, and it surprises me wikepedia has CURRENT cartoons.

‘too much wealth to care about this planet’s health’. I have never, ever comprehended anyone who thinks their OWN life, existence, themSELVES, more important than welfare of a many. Unreal.

You got it El. Don’t think that’s what Jesus meant when he said confess your sins and all will be forgiven. So much for amends… Now hand me those pills so I can get through the coming year of political lies, farce and bullshit. The PEOPLE should be given a prescription to deal with these demigods and politicians. The latter should be required daily 12 step meetings. just a though -wicked smile-.
